I love, love, love Fall! One of the many reasons I love Fall is because some of my favorite fruits and vegetables are in harvest: peaches and zucchini. I have really turned into Suzy Homemaker lately. This last weekend I tried my hand at freezer jam. It was so easy! I made three batches: peach, strawberry, and peach strawberry. They are all yummy but peach strawberry was the favorite. I made a low sugar variety but it was still plenty sweet. Here is the recipe:

I also made refrigerator pickles. That was easy, too! In 4 days I will have yummy bread and butter pickles. Refrigerator pickles and freezer jam... where have you been all my life?!

Has everyone heard of pinterest.com? If not, you should get on it! This website is consuming my life and I think it is responsible for my domestic mood lately. There are so many great ideas for the home, fashion, crafting, you name it. I also love that I can follow friends kind of like facebook, but better!

Finally an Update!

Wow! It has been a really long time since I updated my blog. I guess that goes to show just how busy my summer was! I haven’t had a break from school since I last posted and I have had crazy events back to back to back to plan at work. But Hallelujah! I survived and now Autumn is on its way! This time of year is my absolute favorite. It just feels so new and exciting! Its back to school time, plus tons of cute clothes in beautiful colors are on the racks at my favorite stores. And let’s not forget the Fair! I spent a good share of my 4 day weekend in Blackfoot with family and friends going to the Fair to eat yummy food and see the sights. Here are some of my favorite things about the good ol’ Fair:

• Seeing people I know
• Looking at the photography, quilts, and cakes
• Eating scone nuggets, ice cream cones, pronto pups, hamburgers piled with onions, and drinking frozen lemonade
• Trying to find Kenny Rogers with Jessi Weaver (HA!)

Maybe it is just the Blackfoot in me… but I do LOVE the Fair : )

I enjoyed the summer blockbusters! I went to a lot of movies over the summer. Here were my favorites:

Here are a couple of photos from my summer fun. We went to Vegas for a much needed vacay, camped in Island Park, and had lots fun with family and friends.
